So here is the new Suzuki Bandit 1200 Project bike. The plan is to turbo the motorcycle, it's going to need an engine rebuild and some TIG welding and will be a learning process for Shroom.
This week I make my first ever merge collector, its certainly been a learning curve!

I've really enjoyed watching series 2 of bandit oclock, also just bought a 1200 bandit that needs work, so watching you take one apart ( i've no mechanical experince ) has been brilliant, hope you keep upload dude, keep it up !

@spike8104 4 года назад

Nice work dude! I’ve got a turbo Bandit myself mate,the difference between N/A and turbo is hard to get across...you’re gonna love it.

@Classicmotorbikes 4 года назад

Hi Spike, good to hear from a turbo bandit owner. I can’t wait to try it for the first time. Have you done much to your bandit apart from the turbo?

@spike8104 4 года назад

Engine wise it’s been taken out to 1216 with ‘Busa pistons,manual cam chain tensioner,the top end oil feed conversion and a lock up clutch. It’s running a Garret GT28 turbo,all done by FBM. I love it. I can’t wait to put some miles under it now we can move about a bit more. It’s not even run in yet!

@Classicmotorbikes 4 года назад

That’s my plan to go 1216 with Busa pistons and a lock up clutch. Dave is just down the road from me, love the work he does.

@spike8104 4 года назад

Yeah,he certainly knows his stuff. He’s a top bloke too. I’ll look forward to seeing yours finished mate.

@debbiewright2171 Год назад

Hello , what turbo u usin and how much to do conversion plz ? Cheerz

@guillemmayoral4133 4 года назад

I've been binge watching the first Bandit O'clock series in the past two days and those are nothing compared to the film quality step up you've taken! It's a tedious job but worth it! Keep on going Ian. P.S. My first bike was a Bandit 650 so watching the series tickles something inside.

@Classicmotorbikes 4 года назад

WOW thank you for the feedback really does mean a lot. I'll keep going don't worry and hopefully keep improving. 😎

Just subscribed. Looking forward to this build. I'm a tig welder of 25 years. Just my opinion I could do with less or no music, and more talking through your process but you have to do what is best for you. Its probably much easier to edit and post a video by just laying music on it? Anyway good job so far.

@Classicmotorbikes 3 года назад

Thanks for the sub Dave and thank you for the feedback. I often use the music for when I'm not 100% on what I'm doing, but I still want to try and show what I'm doing, as you can probably tell I'm very new to TIG welding. Glad you are enjoying the videos

@kruno49 4 года назад

I'm really looking forward to the new episodes, it's been a while since last upload. Good luck with the project !! P.S. Will it be street legal? P.S.S. What about stock pistons, cylinder base gasket, compression ratio..?

@Classicmotorbikes 4 года назад

Thanks Kruno I’m glad to be back. Yes it will be street legal, I will be making some changes for the engine to lower the compression ratio, all will be revealed in a future episode 👍

@reggiebacci 4 года назад

Great vid Ian - keep 'em coming. Are you planning to upgrade the oil pump? I seem to recall hearing somewhere that there can be problem maintaining oil pressure with the stock B12 ones with a blower fitted. Good luck mate

@Classicmotorbikes 4 года назад

Thanks Reggiebacci. From the research I’ve done the standard Suzuki oil pump is fine, but the getting the oil from the turbo back to the sump can be problematic. If I do have any problems I do have a couple of different options I can try.

It’s not what I had in my head before I started but will still work, all will be explained in the next video 👍

@bribbripnairbnab7301 4 года назад

Any idea how many total videos the turbo project will be? Good job filming and working. I thought you were being filmed by somebody else while you worked.

@Classicmotorbikes 4 года назад

Hi Brian, I'm not sure on the total about of videos but I think it could be around 10-12. My Dad Bill does help with the filming sometimes but most of the time it's just me 👍

Awesome 😎 let me know how you get on with your CB1300 🤙

@BorisKarloff66 4 года назад

Great video as usual mate, looking forward to seeing the project progress. I was watching you strip the bike with great interest, thinking how will he get out that airbox without removing the engine, but you cut that part out, so how did you do it

@Classicmotorbikes 4 года назад

Thanks Adam, the airbox can be a bit fiddly but to help I remove the rubber boots that connect the airbox to the carbs and makes life a little easier, then I remove it from the left and side of the bike, the hardest bit is getting the prong that bolts the airbox the frame past the frame rail. Hope that makes sense 👍

@BorisKarloff66 4 года назад

@@Classicmotorbikes It makes perfect sense, I spent about an hour trying to remove mine last week but gave up before I smashed something

@nick4506 4 года назад

easy way to make ok fabrication videos is to just velcro the camera above whatever you are working on. it's not in the way and you don't have to move it around.

@Classicmotorbikes 4 года назад

thanks Nick I'll give it a try, should have a new video very soon!

@bitetime4266 4 года назад

What was the carb problem that you had? Nice work by the way!

@Classicmotorbikes 4 года назад

The butterfly on the carb was closed all the time so I adjusted like when balancing carbs and runs great now 👍

@bitetime4266 4 года назад

Thank you sir, i really appreciate your answer! I had similar problem but it was vacuum leak on cylinder four intake boot

Hi Ian whens the next installment ?

@Classicmotorbikes 4 года назад

Hi Robin, sorry on the slow reply, should be here really soon. its been a steep learning curve!

@markjackson7650 4 года назад

Is that a turbo from a Subaru Impreza?

@Classicmotorbikes 3 года назад

Hi Mark, yes it is, from one of the early models I believe.

@markjackson7650 3 года назад

@@Classicmotorbikes spotted that hotside flange a mile away. I would have thought though that that turbo would be very laggy on a bike given that it's quite laggy with a 2l engine supplying it with exhaust gases. Still will make lots of power. Good luck with the rest of the build.

@suzukibanditrider8318 4 года назад

What’s that motorcycle lift you got that would be ideal ? :)

@Classicmotorbikes 4 года назад

Hi Hillbilly woody, it’s called the ABBA Skylift, if you check out our other videos I’ve done a review of it 👍
